Happy Halloween! Today, I have the pleasure of speaking with Eileen Hollis. Eileen is a funeral director at the Hollis Funeral Home in Syracuse, NY. At the beginning of the pandemic, Eileen started making Tik Tok videos, answering some of people's most relevant questions about, well... death. And she has been very successful at it, garnering over 700,000 followers and 11 million likes. Eileen has been de-stygmatizing the conversations about death in an industry that is seeing change in the wake of social media. Hollis Funeral Home Website Tik Tok

Enjoy. Website 4 Mile Circus Meme Celluloid Mirror Patreon
I am wildly ignorant about what the hell an NFT is. However, I know a guy who knows at least a few things, so I asked Mike Perry to come on. We dive into it after discussing some potential podcast spinoffs, and then we say screw it, and just start asking about ourselves as humans. Mike Perry Studio
Sean Dunne is a filmmaker and multidimensional artist in Brooklyn.

It's almost bad comedy at this point to talk about how much we miss being amongst people. Even with the vaccine for COVID 19 in sight, the urge to be amongst the crowds is an ever present urge for many. Well, I might have a little medicine for that. Today I am talking to Liz Muller, co-founder of Pipe Dream Theater, and the director of it's musical Podcast, Three Ghosts. We'll get into what the podcast is shortly, but with a combination of great writing, direction, and music, it was a wonderful reprieve that I enjoyed very much, and I hope you will too. Take a listen. Pipe Dream Theater Website Three Ghosts on Apple Podcasts... ... and Spotify. Also: Waterproof Notebooks.

Ever had to do your best work under pressure? Everyone does, but what if the place were you had to perform was in the middle of a war zone? Kevin Belli is a director and cinematographer who has traveled through the Middle East, capturing some of the real-life drama of the people there. We're sitting down for a drink and a chat about everything from Green Zones to the dread of a slowly dying ceiling fan. Take a listen. Kevin Belli on Vimeo
Ladies and gentlemen, we need to talk about Zack Snyder. As you may know, the Snyder Cut of the Justice League drops tomorrow, a film that was originally trashed when creative direction was changed at the studio's behest, amidst a horrible tragedy for Zack Snyder and his family. It was revived, however, but the onslaught of online petitions and fan support, delivering a film no one thought would ever be seen. So, I have invited Hamilton Tamayo back to discuss, have a drink, and engage in our second careers as film critics. Here we go. Create Consume Repeat

Ep51 - Bartools with Hamilton Tamayo
Art changes with time and with technology, and so do creatives. The tech world over the past fifteen years has seen tectonic shifts in terms of commerce, socializing, and advertising. Today I talk with Hamilton Tamayo, who has navigated these shifts since his first job. I will warn you, we turn hard into nerd-dom and keep driving on through. While drinking. We drink and drive into nerd-dom. You know what, this is a bad analagy let's just start the show. Create, Consume, Repeat

The title of producer gets thrown around a lot. But what does it mean? Well, Becca Fallborn is the new executive producer for Lime Studios NYC, and we're going to talk about her career and the path there. Along the way we'll touch on work life balance, podcasting, and whiskey. So much whiskey. Becca on Linkedin You'rExcused Podcast
I don't know about you, but the past few weeks have been rough. The new year saw the culmination of political division in the United States in the storming of the Capitol, an event not seen in more than 200 years. In the context of this event, and those leading up to it, Drinking with Creatives is going to do a something bit different for our season 2 premiere. There's a lot of confusion about one of our Constitutional amendments and we're going to clarify things a bit by asking a question: What the Hell is the Freedom of Speech? Where does it begin? As importantly, where does it end? Is de-platforming a First Amendment issue? If Twitter bans me, can I sue? So I did the only sensible thing, when needing an education. I got me a teacher. Music for this episode was produced by Meydän. They can be found at soundcloud.com/meydansound.
Well, Lenny from Nice Shoes and I had such a good time, he decided to bring the entire staff. Today I am speaking with Lenny, Justin, Jason, Paul and Sal from Nice Shoes. We are emulating the fabled whiskey tasting that Nice Shoes had up until the Covid shutdown, and take some time to discuss networking, community, connections and doing some damn good work. Take a listen.

How hard have you ever looked at color? I mean REALLY looked? Do you know the difference between luminance, saturation, and hue? Well, Lenny does. Lenny Mastrandrea is a colorist and department head at Nice Shoes, one of the top creative studios in New York and North America. Color grading is often something that people outside of the industry rarely get a chance to see, so I thought bringing Lenny on to talk about his articular brand of sorcery would be enlightening. Take a look.
